Mr Chips is making a Come-Back - Whack-O!/July 17th 2012.

Richie - How right you are to celebrate the great teachers who have inspired us! Old Wob fondly remembers his own primary teacher Miss Olonghu, an attractive black Marxist lesbian who fled apartheid in South Africa way back in the late 60s. This gorgeous woman instilled in us a love of music, literature and cultural diversity and her motto was equal opportunity for every child to fulfil his or her potential. Needless to say, Rich, these are values which have stayed with me throughout my life and are values which our troughing Eton-educated masters seem duty bound to ignore. That ideological Right Wing wind bag Gove seems intent on dragging our educational system back into the medieval period! Dear Miss Olonghu returned to her native South Africa after apartheid was dismantled and I believe is still teaching to this day. The week she left these shores Old Wob gathered together a group of former students and we performed a traditional African song in the style of Ladysmith Black Mambazo complete with colourful robes, head-dress, and falsies! Rich - she was, er, overwhelmed!
